Refund and Event Policies

This event is the in-person version of a hybrid daylong retreat which will take place both in-person and online. To register for the online version of this event, click here.

The container of a daylong retreat offers a unique opportunity to slow down and connect to our own experience. Deepen your practice in this community setting through the cultivation of mindfulness and lovingkindness. This retreat offers you a chance to gift yourself with a day spent quieting the mind and heart, thus allowing an innate wisdom to grow and be nourished.

This day of practice together will include sitting meditation, walking meditation, dharma talks on exploring what it means to “go for refuge,” and relational practices involving mindful speaking and listening. Most of the day will be held in noble silence.  This retreat will be supportive for both beginning and more experienced meditators. Everyone is welcome.

What to bring?
Please bring a bagged lunch and any snacks you might need.  Wear comfortable clothing with layers to help you adjust to temperature changes throughout the day.

Where is this event located?
This event will take place in person at the Benedict Canyon Retreat House. Find directions and more details on this link.
